UK's first geothermal plant turns on today A first-of-its-kind plant in Cornwall takes water and heat from 3 miles underground to drive turbines, generating energy for 10,000 homes. “Like a nuclear power station underground, we’re just tapping the heat,” says Ryan Law CEO of Geothermal Engineering.
Fracking and North Sea oil are a red herring for energy security “We have renewables which are reducing UK prices of electricity.” North Sea oil and gas are sold on global markets by private firms “not owned by the public”. Wind power cut UK energy bills by a third in 2025. @jessralston.bsky.social
"ITS A PANTS CAP" "You should not be on the price cap if you can get off it." With the energy price cap going up in January as well as in April. Martin Lewis tells households "cheaper fixes are currently 10% less than the price cap with cheaper tariffs coming next week."
"Cutting ECO without a transitory plan, this government currently does not have a current plan to alleviate there being 6.1 million people in fuel poverty in the UK, who are having to choose between heating and eating.

"Most of the increase in peoples bills in the UK when it comes to electricity are from the added cost of gas, just over two thirds of the bill." - @janrosenow.bsky.social explains a new report by UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC) to @lbcnews.bsky.social

“Most other countries are going further and faster. I think we will actually see that those nationally determined contributions will be vastly outstripped because the real economy is taking over.” Tom Rivett-Carnac speaks on his optimism of COP30 almost ten years on from the Paris Climate Agreement.
“If you break the link between gas and electricity, you’ll probably save consumers a lot of money.” Gas sets the electricity price, so wind and nuclear are sold at higher gas-driven rates, cutting that link could lower bills. @adambell.bsky.social Partner at Stonehaven, on the Today programme.
“If enough states are together saying no, then they can hold up talks at COP30 due to its consensus mechanism.” The UN climate process relies on unanimity, and disputes over fossil fuel language show how easily momentum can be slowed.
